Crock Pot Recipes?

I was wondering if anyone had any recipe suggestions for healthy meals in a crock pot? I received a single person sized one for Christmas and have yet to use it. I thought it might time to give it a try. I do not normally cook at all so anything simple would be appreciated!

One chicken breast and cover with your about a half of a jar favorite salsa (I like walmarts mango lime) cook all day. Shred and serve in a taco shell, or with rice, or however you want. Add a nice salad on the side One of my go to meals.0

Not sure what your definition of healthy is, but here's a super simple recipe for pulled bbq chicken made with chicken breasts, barbecue sauce, and italian dressing:

Just in case you weren't aware of this feature, when you go to the message boards section, there is a button called search and you can type in a keyword (ex: crock pot) and you can see the threads that have already been created on the topic. Good luck! :flowerforyou:

BUMP means Bring Up on My Page.

Bump doesnt actually mean anything. You will see this topic simply because you have replied to it. You can type 1 or bazinga or the Gettysburg Address if you choose, its just a reply.0

You can use chuck steak or chicken with a little bit of broth or water and taco seasoning, use as tortilla filling or in/on a salad.0

I cut up chicken, toss in the pot with my favorite herbs of the week, this changes add a couple of cups of different veggies, put in one cup of water. Cook on low for up to 8 hrs or high for 4 hrs. and chicken stew ready to go over quinao or any other grain you like to use.If cooking of one, this will last you for days.
You can do the same with beef and veggies.
If pork is something you eat, take a couple of lean pork loin chops, cover with a can of Hatch's green chilies, diced, a chopped onion, and a can of diced tomatoes, add chile powder to taste, some garlic to taste, power or granuales or fresh doesn't matter, half cup of chicken broth. Tex-Mex pork chops in 4 hrs if cooked on high.
These should be enough to get you going.0 -

In my crock pot at this very moment: Frozen chicken breast, Franks red hot buffalo wing sauce (1/2 - 3/4 bottle, depending on how much sauce you want or how much chicken), shot of whiskey, garlic powder and blue cheese powder to taste (I get mine at myspicesage dot com).
Cook on high for a couple of hours then low for the rest of the day. Shred or each whole. I then put the rest of the liquid in a saucepan to reduce it by about 1/4 so that its thicker and pour that over the chicken. I make enough to last a week, and use it for sandwiches, nachos, over quinoa and black beans with a bit of cheese. If sodium is a concern, this might not be an option for you, but its low cal and high protein.
I think today when I reduce the sauce, I'm going to throw some shrimp into some of it.
I've also made black bean soup/stew in my crock pot with beans (canned, rinsed or dry and soaked), broth, a bay leaf, seasonings and sometimes chopped ham shank. It freezes well, also.
Check out Pinterest, too. There are a ton of recipes that show up on my feed for everything from oatmeal to desserts.0
